Wreck On The Mountain Road

歌詞

They gave him his orders at Bullhead Mountain Saying, "Brown, you are always behind It is of yourself that you are thinking You care nothing for the loss of time" He jumped on the truck and he pulled down the throttle Saying, "I'll try and make lost time It's a mountain road that I have to travel And it's full of the dangerous climb" It's one highway he had to travel And the curves were many and sharp It was late in the day when he left Glade Valley And he wanted to make it by dark On one of these turns near the foot of the mountain The truck it swerved around It threw Lonnie out and a timber struck him And he died there upon the ground Now to all other men who drive this mountain Let this be a warning to you He left his wife and two little children The next one might be you We will say to May(?) and her two little children To his loving memory be true Safe in that home beyond all trouble He is waiting for his children and you
